1. Will also have windoze whatever bs it is, since its usage=20 is still in existence duh! -=A0 -

2. Surely Debian the universal OS=A0 - will have x86-64 image. - GNOME = - Kernel 3.x. - bash

3. The Ubuntu - will have 32-bit - image. - XFCE - Kernel 3.x. - bash

4. The Slackware vanilla (stable), to get deep into the kernel :) - 32-= bit image - registers and argument handling. - fluxbox - Kernel 2.xx.x - bash

5. Voiding Gentoo is like keeping the penguin out of ice cap, so will m= ake space for it. -x86-32 image - KDE - Kernel 3.x. - sh

6. Thinking of legacy commercial unix solaris 5/09 (the original unix o= f them all) - 32-bit image - CDE - woohoo!

I know its a bit whim= sical, but would love to work on these OS'es except the #1 in order.

How big is the disk(s)?

Which OS' are you thinking of installing and in which order?

Do you have installation CDs for all OS (including MSWindows)?

Does your PC feature an MBR or an UEFI?
